Product details

Line protection design means it's optimized for feeder and distribution duty, not motor-starting cycles. Breaking capacity is substantial: 440 kA at 240 V, 330 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 220 kA at 500 V, and 52.5 kA at 690 V. That covers most industrial distribution panels where fault current runs high — think 480 V switchgear in a plant with a multi-MVA transformer feeding the bus.

Four poles in one compact block saves rail space versus ganging single-pole units. Maximum power loss is 19.7 W at rated load — worth noting for thermal management in a sealed or high-density panel.
